AT HENRIETTA
SEVERAL PROMINENT SPEAKERS
OP COUNTY WERE ON PROGRAM—OFFICERS ELECTEO
The convention of the Amherst district Bunday schools was held st Henrietta laat Sunday afternoon and evening, at which time over one hundred
delegates were present and enjoyed
the special program arranged for the
occasion.
The meetings were held in the afternoon and evening in the Oerman
Methodist church, of whtch Rev. Jauch
Is pastor.
Both afternoon and evening sessions
were the scene of excellent speakers,
Frank M. Shelton, superintendent ot
schools In Blyria, being the main
speaker In the afternoon session. In
his speech he emphasized the fact
that church meetings are important
and that they have a great deal to do
with many of the great questions bo-
fore the people of America today. The
church has a great part to play In
solving the world's questions and to
show thla point he illustrated It by
comparing Christianity as equivalent
to the torches carried by the old Qreek
and Roman runners. This comparison was a fitting comparison and the
speech' was enjoyed by all.
Miss Marie Mueller, who is now
assistant superintendent of the Young
People's department of the Sunday
Schools tn Lorain county, gave a
speech on the value of the organited
class. Many classes have live students but they do not get the real
benefit of their class unless organized
and today there is a great deal of dls
cusslon on this subject.
The evening session was the scene
of a large delegation and some exceptionally line speeches.
L. B. Hlndman, secretary of the
Blyria Y. M. C. A., delivered the address at this session. His theme waa
that concerning the value of Christian education. He believes that not
enough time Is spent in studying religious subjects and that In some way
the study may. be Introduced into the
public schools. This also has been
discussed before tout the matter has
always been unsettled.
The remainder of the evening session was devoted to the election of
officers for the ensuing year. They are
as follows: H. B. Hurst, president;
Miss Marion Steele, secretary; and
Miss Holshauer, superintendent of the
Young People's department. Rev
M. Neumeister was elected as the head
of the education department and Har
mon Beeslng as a member of the
board. \
The arrangements for the oonven
tion next year have not been made
as yet, but the officers are now making plans for the occasion. As the
conventions are attended better each
year, an exceptionally line program
will be arranged by the officers Tor
next year.

STATE INSPECTORS
TO COVER COUNTY
ARE MAKING THOROUGH INSPEC
TION OF OI8EA8E OF BEES-
WILL TAKE TWO WEEKS
PAVING TO START
IN SIX WEEKS
SOME ARE IN FAVOR OF SOLID
CONCRETE PAVING — OPPOSED BY COUNCIL
BROWNHELM
R. J. Porter and It. D. Hiatt. state In
spectors, are in Amherst making an
Inspection of the disease known
among beekeepers as the American
foul brood, and said to exist among
the bees of the county.
The inspectors were sent here by
the State Department of Agriculture
through the efforts of the Lorain
County Bee association after tbe disease was discovered by some of the
members. The disease, however, is
detrimental to the production of the
bees and in no way effects the honey
us far us its use Is concerned.
The inspection will cover the entire
county and it Is said that It will require about two weeks to complete the
work.
It is Uie desire of the county association that all who are interested in
bee culture to affiliate with their organization, that they may be benefited
by the co-operation of the state department of agriculture. C. B. Hurlbut, vlcejprestdent of the association,
who is in charge of the inspection,
asks that If there are any who are not
receiving notices of meetings, that
they notify him and they will be put
on the regular mailing list.
SOCIETY
GRADUATES IN TEXAS.
Word has been received by Mr. and
Mrs. R. C. Schaffer, grandparents of
Bvelyn Sharp, former Btudent in the
Amherst schools, that she graduated
from the high school at Orange, Texas, this week. Mr. «*nd Mrs. Sharp
moved from Amherst about six years
ago and Bvelyn has been attending
school in Texas tor that period.
The regular meeting of the council
was held In the council chamber on
Tuesday evening, at which time the
paving program was the chief subject of discussion.
Ordinances were read to the effect
that the paving start immediately and
that the council advertise for bids.
The matter of using concrete ss
curbing was also discussed. Some are
of the opinion that concrete should be
used while others favor stone, but the
discussion at the meeting will undoubtedly result In the use of stone
curbing.
The question of whether to use as-
phult or concrete as a paving material
has also been a chief matter of discussion. The majority of property
owners are In favor of using the asphalt but some of the residents on
Lincoln and Cornell deem It better
to use concrete as It will not cost as
much as the asphalt. It is cheaper,
but many of the council are of the
opinion that if the water getH under
the concrete pavement that It Is bound
to crack and It would take a great
ileal of time and money to keep It in
good condition.
Another drawback to the use of concrete pavement Is that It will require
different paving equipment and an extra gang of men If asphalt 'pavement
Is used the one equipment and the
same men can do the entire work,
which will save time. As time is an
important factor In the paving pro-
grum, all efforts will be put forth to
make plans to use the asphalt paving
material.
The matter of draining the property
on Cross street wan also discussed.
Mr. Coverdale was present and stated
that all property owners on that street
with the exception of one were in favor ot paying for the tile to drain the
land. As It Is now, the water la running down on that street from points
east of that street and the water-does
not leave that property through the
means of drainage. The council are
willing to help in relieving this condition sb soon as they hear from one
of the property owners on that street
who,lives in Blyria. Mr. Coverdale
will again consult the residents on his
afreet and report on the matter later.

A chicken dinner was served in the
woods,* which afforded great sport. Another feature of the dinner waa a
cake, two feet by three feet in measurement, which was made with tbe
Templar trade-mark across the top.
The party was tbe scene ' of merriment throughout. *
local teum could have probably tie
f.'uted the Loruln outfit by a larger
score, but ns it was, the local boys
hud their new uniforms on for the
tirst limn ami bated like everything to
get them dirty. They did not have
their minds on the game ns Winch as
they ought to huve hud. They kept
wondering If the pretty girls on the
side linos were watching them iu their
ntew suits As u result of this, Lorain
wus lu the lead at the beginning of the
game. The game wub scoreless until
the third Inning when the Lerner and
Ashers scored four runs. The score
remained 4-0 until the firth Inning,
when the Lorain team scored one more
run, thus leaving the score 6-0. The
local boys soon forgot about their new
suits und buw that it would be the
only way to win the game. In the fifth
lulling (iasser, A. Wragg und Ludwig
each brought in a run, thus leaving
the score 6-3. In the seventh inning
(iasser made another score, which left
the Lorain outfit In the lead by only
one point. The eighth Inning was the
turning point of the game. With C
Wragg and Harry Ruth .on base, F
Fahrney steps up to the plate and
spits ou his bat for good luck. Did he
get it? I'll say he did, and us a result, netted the Atyourdors three runs
iu the inning, because he knocked a
home run.
In the ninth inning, Lorain was able
to score one point, but this left the atyourdors iu tbe lead by one score.

AT HENRIETTA
SEVERAL PROMINENT SPEAKERS
OP COUNTY WERE ON PROGRAM—OFFICERS ELECTEO
The convention of the Amherst district Bunday schools was held st Henrietta laat Sunday afternoon and evening, at which time over one hundred
delegates were present and enjoyed
the special program arranged for the
occasion.
The meetings were held in the afternoon and evening in the Oerman
Methodist church, of whtch Rev. Jauch
Is pastor.
Both afternoon and evening sessions
were the scene of excellent speakers,
Frank M. Shelton, superintendent ot
schools In Blyria, being the main
speaker In the afternoon session. In
his speech he emphasized the fact
that church meetings are important
and that they have a great deal to do
with many of the great questions bo-
fore the people of America today. The
church has a great part to play In
solving the world's questions and to
show thla point he illustrated It by
comparing Christianity as equivalent
to the torches carried by the old Qreek
and Roman runners. This comparison was a fitting comparison and the
speech' was enjoyed by all.
Miss Marie Mueller, who is now
assistant superintendent of the Young
People's department of the Sunday
Schools tn Lorain county, gave a
speech on the value of the organited
class. Many classes have live students but they do not get the real
benefit of their class unless organized
and today there is a great deal of dls
cusslon on this subject.
The evening session was the scene
of a large delegation and some exceptionally line speeches.
L. B. Hlndman, secretary of the
Blyria Y. M. C. A., delivered the address at this session. His theme waa
that concerning the value of Christian education. He believes that not
enough time Is spent in studying religious subjects and that In some way
the study may. be Introduced into the
public schools. This also has been
discussed before tout the matter has
always been unsettled.
The remainder of the evening session was devoted to the election of
officers for the ensuing year. They are
as follows: H. B. Hurst, president;
Miss Marion Steele, secretary; and
Miss Holshauer, superintendent of the
Young People's department. Rev
M. Neumeister was elected as the head
of the education department and Har
mon Beeslng as a member of the
board. \
The arrangements for the oonven
tion next year have not been made
as yet, but the officers are now making plans for the occasion. As the
conventions are attended better each
year, an exceptionally line program
will be arranged by the officers Tor
next year.

STATE INSPECTORS
TO COVER COUNTY
ARE MAKING THOROUGH INSPEC
TION OF OI8EA8E OF BEES-
WILL TAKE TWO WEEKS
PAVING TO START
IN SIX WEEKS
SOME ARE IN FAVOR OF SOLID
CONCRETE PAVING — OPPOSED BY COUNCIL
BROWNHELM
R. J. Porter and It. D. Hiatt. state In
spectors, are in Amherst making an
Inspection of the disease known
among beekeepers as the American
foul brood, and said to exist among
the bees of the county.
The inspectors were sent here by
the State Department of Agriculture
through the efforts of the Lorain
County Bee association after tbe disease was discovered by some of the
members. The disease, however, is
detrimental to the production of the
bees and in no way effects the honey
us far us its use Is concerned.
The inspection will cover the entire
county and it Is said that It will require about two weeks to complete the
work.
It is Uie desire of the county association that all who are interested in
bee culture to affiliate with their organization, that they may be benefited
by the co-operation of the state department of agriculture. C. B. Hurlbut, vlcejprestdent of the association,
who is in charge of the inspection,
asks that If there are any who are not
receiving notices of meetings, that
they notify him and they will be put
on the regular mailing list.
SOCIETY
GRADUATES IN TEXAS.
Word has been received by Mr. and
Mrs. R. C. Schaffer, grandparents of
Bvelyn Sharp, former Btudent in the
Amherst schools, that she graduated
from the high school at Orange, Texas, this week. Mr. «*nd Mrs. Sharp
moved from Amherst about six years
ago and Bvelyn has been attending
school in Texas tor that period.
The regular meeting of the council
was held In the council chamber on
Tuesday evening, at which time the
paving program was the chief subject of discussion.
Ordinances were read to the effect
that the paving start immediately and
that the council advertise for bids.
The matter of using concrete ss
curbing was also discussed. Some are
of the opinion that concrete should be
used while others favor stone, but the
discussion at the meeting will undoubtedly result In the use of stone
curbing.
The question of whether to use as-
phult or concrete as a paving material
has also been a chief matter of discussion. The majority of property
owners are In favor of using the asphalt but some of the residents on
Lincoln and Cornell deem It better
to use concrete as It will not cost as
much as the asphalt. It is cheaper,
but many of the council are of the
opinion that if the water getH under
the concrete pavement that It Is bound
to crack and It would take a great
ileal of time and money to keep It in
good condition.
Another drawback to the use of concrete pavement Is that It will require
different paving equipment and an extra gang of men If asphalt 'pavement
Is used the one equipment and the
same men can do the entire work,
which will save time. As time is an
important factor In the paving pro-
grum, all efforts will be put forth to
make plans to use the asphalt paving
material.
The matter of draining the property
on Cross street wan also discussed.
Mr. Coverdale was present and stated
that all property owners on that street
with the exception of one were in favor ot paying for the tile to drain the
land. As It Is now, the water la running down on that street from points
east of that street and the water-does
not leave that property through the
means of drainage. The council are
willing to help in relieving this condition sb soon as they hear from one
of the property owners on that street
who,lives in Blyria. Mr. Coverdale
will again consult the residents on his
afreet and report on the matter later.

A chicken dinner was served in the
woods,* which afforded great sport. Another feature of the dinner waa a
cake, two feet by three feet in measurement, which was made with tbe
Templar trade-mark across the top.
The party was tbe scene ' of merriment throughout. *
local teum could have probably tie
f.'uted the Loruln outfit by a larger
score, but ns it was, the local boys
hud their new uniforms on for the
tirst limn ami bated like everything to
get them dirty. They did not have
their minds on the game ns Winch as
they ought to huve hud. They kept
wondering If the pretty girls on the
side linos were watching them iu their
ntew suits As u result of this, Lorain
wus lu the lead at the beginning of the
game. The game wub scoreless until
the third Inning when the Lerner and
Ashers scored four runs. The score
remained 4-0 until the firth Inning,
when the Lorain team scored one more
run, thus leaving the score 6-0. The
local boys soon forgot about their new
suits und buw that it would be the
only way to win the game. In the fifth
lulling (iasser, A. Wragg und Ludwig
each brought in a run, thus leaving
the score 6-3. In the seventh inning
(iasser made another score, which left
the Lorain outfit In the lead by only
one point. The eighth Inning was the
turning point of the game. With C
Wragg and Harry Ruth .on base, F
Fahrney steps up to the plate and
spits ou his bat for good luck. Did he
get it? I'll say he did, and us a result, netted the Atyourdors three runs
iu the inning, because he knocked a
home run.
In the ninth inning, Lorain was able
to score one point, but this left the atyourdors iu tbe lead by one score.
